Book Description
INTRODUCTORY SECTION, PAGE 1 INTRODUCTORY SECTION, PAGE 1 We embrace the truth of an all-inclusive God and then act as though that God never hit the streets. This is a devotional for those who know better. Hope lives, in all places and at all times. These dialogues are unsettling by design. They are the stories of slumming angels, lost for a time, but able to find their way back. They highlight moments when God pulls up a chair beside those who are most in need. This devotional uses strong language and paints graphic scenes. It offers a point of contact for Christians who rebel against the church that cannot offer itself to all without judgement. It speaks to those whose lives, or the lives of those they love, have been so deeply damaged and scarred.

Book Description
Bestselling and award-winning author Lee Strobel interviews experts about the evidence for the afterlife and offers credible answers to the most provocative questions about what happens when we die, near-death experiences, heaven, and hell. We all want to know what awaits us on the other side of death, but is there any reliable evidence that there is life after death? Investigative author Lee Strobel offers a lively and compelling study into one of the most provocative topics of our day. Through fascinating conversations with respected scholars and experts--a neuroscientist from Cambridge University, a researcher who analyzed a thousand accounts of near-death experiences, and an atheist-turned-Christian-philosopher--Strobel offers compelling reasons for why death is not the end of our existence but a transition to an exciting world to come. Looking at biblical accounts, Strobel unfolds what awaits us after we take our last breath and answers questions like: Is there an afterlife? What is heaven like? How will we spend our time there? And what does it mean to see God face to face? With a balanced approach, Strobel examines the alternative of Hell and the logic of damnation, and gives a careful look at reincarnation, universalism, the exclusivity claims of Christ, and other issues related to the topic of life after death. With vulnerability, Strobel shares the experience of how he nearly died years ago and how the reality of death can shape our lives and faith. Follow Strobel on this journey of discovery of the entirely credible, believable, and exhilarating life to come.

Book Description
We started considering the subject of heaven and hell; a very powerful subject. This subject is not taught as much in the body of Christ again for many reasons. We just feel that it puts fear in people and we live in a time and age where people should not be made to be afraid. Unfortunately, if we do not teach about the reality of the afterlife, that there is eternity beyond this realm, we'll be cheating them. This is the heart of the Christian experience. So, we started last week. Part one was proving to us from scripture that there is a place called heaven and there is a place called hell. Incase you've been indoctrinated to believe there is no heaven, it doesn't make any difference there is because one day you'll see one of those places for sure whether you believe it or not. The question is not 'will you spend eternity?' that's a wrong question. It's the location that matters because you'll spend eternity for sure

Book Description
Over half of Americans believe in a literal heaven, in a literal hell. Most people who hold these beliefs are Christian and assume they are the age-old teachings of the Bible. Ehrman shows that eternal rewards and punishments are found nowhere in the Old Testament, and are not what Jesus or his disciples taught. He recounts the long history of the afterlife, ranging from The Epic of Gilgamesh up to the writings of Augustine, focusing especially on the teachings of Jesus and his early followers. Ehrman shows that competing views were intimately connected with the social, cultural, and historical worlds out of which they emerged. -- adapted from jacket

Visions of Hell... In A Divine Revelation of Hell, over a period of thirty nights, God gave Mary K.

Here is an account of the place and beings of hell contrasted with the glories of heaven. Follow Mary in her supernatural journey as she enters with Jesus into a gateway to hell and encounters the sights, sounds, and smells of that dark place of torment, including its evil spirits, cells, pits, jaws, and heart. Be an eyewitness to the various punishments of lost souls and hear their shocking stories. This book is a reminder that each of us needs to accept the miracle of salvation before it is too late—and to intercede for those who do not yet know Christ. Time is running out.

Book Description
A visceral, first-hand account of the afterlife. Laurie Ditto's life was forever marked when she experienced supernatural visions of hell. She knew these encounters were meant as a wake-up call for herself and others, so she has made it her mission to share this message with the world. The Hell Conspiracy is a somber warning. It records harrowing accounts of souls enduring endless torture and eternal separation from God. It also reveals terrifying secrets of the afterlife in Hell, including... The five pains of hell: water, bone marrow, breath, agreement, and the garment. The activity of demons. The connection between unforgiveness and eternal torment. The ultimate destination and fate of the condemned. The changing shape of people's bodies in hell. But this book is also a beacon of hope! These horrors are contrasted with the glorious hope of Heaven. Those who receive salvation through Jesus escape torment and experience an eternity of life as it was meant to be: as renewed bodies, souls, and spirits in perfect relationship with God. The alarm is sounding! Heaven and Hell are real. Where will you go?
